People Disappear Here

[Verse 1:]
Way down a dark alleyway
And somewhere in the Garden State
A girl from California waits
She has my name but not my face.

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
And I, tried to let her be someone
Hoping when the morning comes
She's not another hit and run that everybody knows.

[Chorus:]
The people disappear here, ah
People disappear here, ah
People disappear here, ah
People disappear hеre, ah.

[Verse 2:]
So let's say for goodness sakе
That she cleans it up and finds her way
But a child can't affect her fate
And you pay, and you pay, and you pay.

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
And now, maybe if you see someone
Hoping when the evening comes
You're not another hit and run that everybody knows.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
I hurt myself to make sure I exist
I pinch myself to make sure that I'm real
I hurt myself to make sure I exist
I need someone to tell me how I feel.

[Chorus:]
'Cause people disappear here, ah
People disappear here, ah
People disappear here, ah.

[Outro:]
(People disappear here
People disappear here
People disappear here
People disappear here
People disappear here).
